tically the following resolution pre
sented by the Committees on Evan

“Whereas the operation of Bev

is a violation of the Canada Temper
ance Act, which has been declared
by the Supreme Court of Canada

in said County:
And whereas no expression of the
people’s will has ever indicated any
desire for such a violation of said
Act;
And Whereas w® whole-heartedly
condemn this lawlessness and this
flouting bf the will of the people
of the County.
Be it Therefore Resolved that we
as a Presbytery, in order to safe
guard the youth of our County, de
mand that no authorities be re-is
sued in Huron when they expire and
that these beverage rooms be closed
as soon as possible.”

TWO VIEWS ON THE LIQUOR QUESTION
THE PEOPLE"
THE PROFIT"says Mi. Hepburn
says Mr. Rowe
FOR three years the liquor problem has been out of control in Ontario. Mr. Hepburn, worried
by the rising tide of public indignation, now tacitly admits the fact. In acknowledgment of
the situation, he makes another typical last-minute, pre-election promise.
But Ontario voters are not going to be fooled again.
p
$
i
"Revenue First"—Hepburn
“Profit” has been Mr. Hepburn’s liquor policy ever
since he took office. Here are his own words as quoted
in the Border Cities Star, Windsor, October 26, 1934:-
’ A ...“Another thing that the Province requires is
revenue. I am informed that since Mr. Odette took
office, he has turned over to the Treasury $2,800,000.
Let these people point out some other source of
revenue. Do they want, higher gasoline or cor
poration tax? Do they want a Provincial Income
Tax? It is obvious that if we lose the revenue from
the Liquor Control Board, we will have to get it
elsewhere.”
The Conservative Party takes the position that: public
revenue should not be gained at the expense of
decency.
No More Mushroom Dives
When Mr. Rowe is elected, beverage rooms will be
confined to standard hotels which respect the law and
give adeqilate service to the public.
Restaurants, taxi offices, rooming houses and hot dog
stands- will not, by means of a few “jerry-built”
changes in construction, be able to qualify as standard
hotels.
"People First"—Rowe
Contrast this “liquor for profit” policy with Mr.
Rowe’s clean-cut stand in the interest of the people.
Mr. Rowe has pledged himself: “I will return to
a policy of control by a responsible board, free
from political patronage. A survey will be made
by the new board of all licensed hotels. I promise
you that these mushroom dives which have sprung
Up and flourished under Hepburn will be closed—
and stay, closed,”
Beverage rooms will not be forced on communities
where they are not wanted. Nor Will such places flour
ish in the shadow of the churches Of the Province.
Non-Political Control
Under Conservative administration, by means of a
responsible non-political control body, beverage rooms K
will.be so regulated that they will cease to be a blot
on the social and moral life of Ontario.
A vote for the Conservative candidate is a vote for
this policy of control.
